with shout and the voice of the archangel,

they put us to our last slumber here must get

as we come to-day and stand by tho river Of
Jordan that divides us from our friends who
are gone, it seems to me we stand on one
bank, and they stand on the other: and it is
only narrow stream. and our voices go and
their voices come. Hark! Hush! hear dis
tinctly what they say: "These are they
who come out Of great tribulation,
and had their robes washed and
made white IN the blood or the Lamp. ,
Still the voice comes across the waters, and
hear: ''We hunger no more, we thirst no

any heat for the Lamb which is in the midst
Of the throne leads US to living fountains Of
water, and God wipeth away oil tears from

NEW York, April 24.-William Gull.

Vile, left his home on Tenth avenue, be-
tween One hundred and Forty fourth and
One Hundred and Forty fifth streets, at
one O'Clock Friday afternoon to collect
meney with which to pay his hands. Just
after sundown he was brought back un
conscious, and died an hour later. His
family and friends are certain that he had
Inc. with foul play land the circumstar ces
under which he was found and statements
made by him before his death rather point
that way. His buggy Was found stand

The horse had brought its master home,
but Mr.. Guilfoyle was unconscious. The
men who discovered him imagined that
he was under the influence of liauor, and
assisted him into the house.
When he left the house he told his
wife that he was going to collect bill at
One Hundred and Twenty ninth street
and the Boulevard, Ee was in the habit of
carrying large sums OF money and usually
had several checks In his pocket. When
found he was lying on the seat of the
buggy, breathing heavily. Being carried
into the house, he vented freely, and a
large abrasion was noticed upon his fore
head. Regaining momentary conscious
ness the man called bis wife to him and
said: annie, was Rugged tonight,
know | was: am done" He asked to
be taken into the air, which was done,
but as he grew cold he was returned 10
the house. He died soon after, and lust
before breathing his last, he said: "Thomas
Kennedy drugged me to night. He often
tried to do 1t. 1t was bad for me to meet
him.
Deputy Coroner Herald visited the de =.

said that Kennedy, whom her husband
spoke about, kept a saloon at Tenth ave-
nue. and One Hundred and Forty seventh
street. There were only a few dollars in
I her husbands pockets when he was
brought into the house.
DR.. Herald is of the opinion that the
abrasion on the mans forehead resulted
from blow with a sand bag which frac-
tured his skull. The police are investigat-
| ing the case.

Guilfoyle was found last evening by

about six O'Clock he was at One Hundred

Guilfoyle drove up in wagon. With
him was Gilbert Brett, cousin of Gull
foyle's wife. They conversed for short
time, and then Guilfoyle drove on up the

was not in the formers saloon on Friday
night. When he got home in the even

He denies having drank with him, and

HAoERsTowN, Nd, April 24.-A mys-
tertous attempt at double murder was
made late last night at the residence OF
Mrs. Catherine -Cump, 'aat Mtddleburg
pike, three miles north Of this place.
Mrs. Cump Is a widow, 81 years of age.
Her sen, Carlyle. aged "a, who is an in.
valid, lives at home, and another son,
Emanuel, aged 20, is employed on the
farm of Martin Middlekauff, about mile
away. He. however, was in the habit of
visiting his mother every Saturday and
remaining until Monday morning. He
came home last night as was his custom.
About eleven O'Clock the family retired.
The house is a small one and there is
only one sleeping apartment. in which
there are two beds. One of these was oc-
cupied by the widow, and the other, on
which her invalid son lay, was close to
the side OF her bed, in order that she
might the better attend to his wants dur
| ing the night.
Carlyle and his mother retired first, and
Emanuel, whom, they had left in the din
| ing room, came in later. he brought
with him n FIVE -barreled revolver which
he was in the habit of carrying, and laid
| 1t on the floor beside his bed. His mother
asked him to pat the weapon away, say.
Ing that she might rise suddenly In the
night and step upon it. Emanuel laugh
ed at her fears, and In a few moments
mother and sons were all apparently fast
asleep.
About midnight the mother was
awakened BY the sharp report Of . pist0l,
and the next instant second report fol-
lowed, and she felt Q singing sensation
in her neck. a third shot was fred ia,
/ as che noticed Two men standing beside
her bed. This time she-was shot In the
head and fell unconscious. Emanuel,
the younger son, says that the sounds OF
tho pistol shots and his mothers screams
awakened him. He thought he saw two
men with light clothes in the room.
They were strangers. He. rushed into the
| dining room adjoining the sleeping apart
ment to get light, and as he did so he
ran against Carlyle, who exclaimed; "For
Gods sake, brother don't shoot" Emau.
uei said, ~ am not shooting. Two strap
men are In the house." ~
l The next moment, Ems ,
another report was hes,', Ausi hmi,s, STys

Idition and her son is not expected to live
The pistol found In the dining room
with which apparently the shooting had
been done, was Emanuel's, who has been
arrested, and there is terrible suspicion
that he did the shooting. His exemplary
character, however, and his known love
for his mother and brother, make 1t ap-
pear almost impossible that he could te
guilty. Several other persons are sus-
pected.
